Fish Tapes and Fish Tapes Forte contain Praziquantel, the same active ingredient commonly used in other tapeworm medications, but in a water-soluble capsule or powder. Praziquantel treats intestinal infections caused by Dipylidium caninum, Taenia pisiformis, Taenia taeniaeformis, and Echinococcus granulosus and removal and control of Echinococcus multilocularis. It is also used to treat Praziquantel susceptible disease conditions in freshwater, marine and ornamental aquariums. Each capsule or level teaspoon (3.1 gm) of Fish Tapes contains 34 mg Praziquantel. Each capsule of Fish Tapes Forte contains 170 mg Praziquantel for five times the strength and effectiveness.

For aquarium and ornamental fish use only. Not for human use.
Do not give to fish intended for food use.

Directions for Use:Fish Tapes
Add one level teaspoon (3.1 gm) of Fish Tapes powder or empty one Fish Tapes capsule in no more than 10 gallons of water for individual bathing. Start treatment with as large of a water change as practical or with new water. Do not stop filtration, but remove activated carbon and UV sterilization. Distribute the amount around the edges or directly into the filter box to achieve the best overall distribution. A single treatment lasting 5-7 days is normally sufficient. Retreat as necessary; but no more than once every 3-5 days. May be used as a preventative at the standard dosage. Do not use with any other drugs.

Noticed my boy had worms in his stool so I bought this. Accidentally bought the lower dosage(10 capsules @ 34mg each) but that was okay. I gave him 5 caps (155lb) literally within 5 hours..(his next potty) I seen the little sucker. Browning in color AND DEAD(usually white and squirming).. A few poops after they were totally gone! Love this product and will recommend to any fur parent I know that is dealing with tapeworms!

I looked at three of the major Pet stores in my area, Petco, Petsmart, Pet SuppliesPlus.

Even Jack's they specialize in fish. None of the had ever heard of such a thing.

I found out through a friend who is Big into fish. I almost had an epidemic in my tank.

everything is now back to normal. Just wish I hadn't wasted time driving around town for three days.

I use Fish Tapes to treat tapeworms in my dogs and puppies. The ingredients are the same as tapeworm medicine for dogs but less than half the price! 1 Dose for dogs cost me about $10.00 verses less than $2.00 per dose using fish tapes. And they are ABSOLUTELY the same ingredients and dosage! Thank you Revival!
